Take an Arctic Journey



The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, located off the coast of the Beaufort Sea on Alaska's north shore, is prized for its wilderness and wildlife. It is also coveted by multi-national oil companies for its possible oil reserves. The Wilderness Society is working to set this area off limits to oil development, and protect its most precious resources: Wilderness and the wildlife that depend on it.

Arctic Journey: Accompany nature photographer John Dunne on his summer-long visit to the Arctic Refuge. John's journal notes give you the feeling of
a wilderness adventure.

Slideshow: Take a
virtual tour of the Arctic Refuge, and see this magnificent wilderness through the camera of nature photographer John Dunne.

Student Questions: Download
our list of questions help older students reflect on their own lives and their environment. (Best if used in conjunction with Arctic Journey, above).

"There is just one hope for repulsing the tyrannical ambition of civilization to conquer every niche of the whole earth. That hope is the organization of spirited people who will fight for the freedom of the wilderness."
